Finding Acceptable James Webb Space Telescope Mission Orbits From a Fixed Ariane Flight Profile

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will be launched into orbit about the Sun/Earth L2 libration point. Trajectory design was recently completed which included expected separation states from the Ariane launch vehicle, constraints such as eclipses, maximum orbit size, maximum Sun-Vehicle-Earth/Moon angles, and launch opportunities. The results of this trajectory design give a set of possible trajectories for JWST with bounded stray light zones and provide a complete launch window. This data is also used to design the initial trajectory correction maneuver such that a maneuver towards the Sun is not required.
